abstract = "Piezocatalysis offers an encouraging alternative for the sustainable, on-demand, and decentralized production of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), underscoring the importance of enhancing piezocatalytic efficiency. Enhancing piezocatalysts through defect engineering has shown considerable potential in boosting H2O2 production efficiency. However, the impact of oxygen vacancies on piezocatalytic activity remains unclear. Herein, we used a chemical probe method to quantify negative charges (q−) and superoxide radicals ([rad]O2−) to explore the relation between the oxygen vacancy concentration and piezocatalytic performance of bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12) based catalysts. Results indicate that piezocatalytic H2O2 production in pure water demonstrates a volcanic trend with increasing oxygen vacancy concentration. This trend is attributed to the dual role of oxygen vacancies, which reduce the piezoelectric property of the piezocatalyst while simultaneously increasing the concentration of [rad]O2−, which is crucial for H2O2 formation through the O2 reduction pathway. This study provides insights into the interplay between oxygen vacancies, piezoelectric properties, and piezocatalytic activity, offering valuable guidance for the design of piezocatalysts for sustainable H2O2 production.",
